Not really interested in anything at the moment though outside of a Fresnel or spare 202vf bulbs. I don't think very many people use them that often anymore. There's virtually no advertising or web presence for them, I've recently discovered that their customer service leaves a lot to be desired, and they haven't innovated their products in forever. It's a shame as they're good/reliable lights.

Dec 23, 2016 18:11 | #3 I just fired up the speedotron 105 for a high-speed test just a hour ago. I used the head for a test of splashes.. I am thinking of doing those 'splash art' of models, but with the UV glow. I am using the older MW24Q tubes for the better UV pops under the UV-A pass filter from a Broncolor attachment. And it looks like I can get the fast capture and high power for the splash art.
